Author Topic: Tying on Fur Tracers...Fly Tying 101 wapiti792 Contributor 2013 Member # 8137 posted                     Chris...relaxing? I tried tying some size 22 elk hair caddis for a trip into the smokies for small brookies this spring. The words that came outa my mouth and then the scolding I got from my wife led me to believe I wasn't relaxing! Now archery...that's relaxing! Thanks for the idea Doc! I got a rabit mask to tie hair's ear nymphs that will work great. -------------------- Mike Davenport Posts: 2196 | From: Southern IL | Registered: Jan 2006  |  IP: Logged |  tippit Assoc Sponsor Member # 1030 posted                     Wapiti792, That rabbit mask for hair's ear nymphs will only work well if it was soft tanned. Most of my rabbit masks are raw hide and thus too stiff to wrap around the arrow shaft. Plus they are usually natural/dark color defeating the purpose of bright colored tracers. You can pick up the cross cut rabbit cheap and in multiple colors. One pack will tie up a lot of arrows. Also you can use marabou but it doesn't hold up as well as rabbit. I hear ya on the small flies...means Big Magnification and NO rough/hang nail hands to snag 8/0 thread for me I much prefer tying up saltwater & salmon flies...Doc PS: I just happened to find this wild hook mouthed buck Cains River Atlantic Salmon on the end of my spey rod with one of my own designed flies...Errrr I meant to say while I was scouting for deer/bear sign in New Brunswick, Canada this past fall.

This is just my method. Since I tie up fly fishing flies anyway, it is pretty easy...Doc -------------------- TGMM Family of the Bow VP of Consumption MK,LLC Posts: 6872 | From: Carlisle, MA & Aiken, SC | Registered: May 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Jerry Wald Contributor 2010 Member # 15100 posted                  Contact cement on both the shaft and the strip should work...same as the spiral flu flu demo right.
